PASCAGOULA, Mississippi -- Lacey Harris, the mother of kindergartner AvaLynn Harris who was injured on the playground at Arlington Elementary, has updated the 5-year-old's condition in a post on her personal Facebook page.

"Thank you all for your continued support," Harris posted. "AvaLynn is doing better. Please continue to pray and share."

It is the first update on how AvaLynn is doing after Harris posted pictures of the girl's badly bruised and swollen face on the Justice For AvaLynn Facebook page on Friday, alleging the injuries were the result of bullying.

Brandon's Jesse Mitchell, the attorney the family has hired, has not responded to multiple phone messages seeking an update on the condition of AvaLynn nor has the family responded to email requests for how the girl is faring or more about her injuries.

"The Pascagoula School District has conducted additional investigation, which confirmed that a student was involved in a playground accident," the official statement said.

"The child fell on playground equipment, and no other students were involved in the injury. Four adults were present at the time. This matter has been turned over to our insurance company for further handling."

The Pascagoula School District "is committed to maintaining a safe environment for all of our students," it said.

The Pascagoula Police Department is also investigating the incident, which occurred on Aug. 26. Harris filed a police report on Aug. 28.
